About The Fortunate Ruyi Chair كرسي
كرسي "رويي" الميمون هو كرسي مستوحى من زخرفة "رويي"، وهي رمز صيني تقليدي يدل على الحظ السعيد. يشكّل الطراز الكلاسيكي للكرسي الأساس البنيوي، ويُدمج مع نمط "رويي" بصيغته المبسّطة. وقد جرى تكرار النمط وقلبه، ثم تراكبه ودمجه لتكوين مقعد وأرجل منحنية. وتخلق الخطوط المنحنية غير المنتظمة، بانحناءاتها الداخلية وأطرافها الخارجية المدببة، إحساسًا بالانسياب وتوازنًا غير متماثل. تبلغ أبعاد الكرسي 500 مم عرضًا و600 مم عمقًا و500 مم ارتفاعًا. وبذلك تلتقي الثقافة التقليدية بالجماليات المعاصرة.

- Production Technology
- For this project, the designer has set the classic chair style shape as the structural basis and combined it with the simplified Ruyi pattern. Then, by duplicating and flipping the pattern, the pattern is overlapped and fused to form a curved seat and legs, perfectly blending traditional culture with modern aesthetics.
- Design Challenge
- For this project, the designer has analyzed the Ruyi pattern, extracted its connotation, and applied it to the product form so that the product is aesthetically, culturally, and functionally enjoyable. In this way, users will understand the underlying cultural spirit of the chair through their experiences with the product. Moreover, this product interprets the spirit of traditional culture unconventionally, changing our perception of traditional culture yet retaining its cultural connotation and, most importantly, paying tribute to ancestry wisdom. In summary, it is an art piece that is awe-inspiring, thought provoking and mind blowing.
- Research
- Vladimir Kagan, the noted German American furniture designer, believes that designing a chair is like creating a container for an individual. Therefore, the function, shape, and meaning of the chair are highly associated with the user and the environment. This project is a clever application of one of the historical motifs of Chinese culture, Ruyi, to a modern product design. From 3D natural objects to 2D patterns and then applying them to 3D products, the designer has simplified the lines and colors to create a work that is aesthetically modern and attractive.
- Inspiration
- Ruyi has served as a unique cultural symbol in Chinese culture and has an underlying meaning of great fortune. The designer has set Ruyi as the primary inspiration for the chair design because, during the designer experiences in the field of interior design over the years, each design project must be executed based on the client preferences and many other contributing factors.
- Project Duration
- The project was completed in August 2021 in Taipei Taiwan.
- Operation Flow
- Other than that, the lines of the seat are extended by the Ruyi pattern by the use of the irregular curved lines, unique angles of the inner curves, and the outer corners of the tips to produce a rich and dynamic rhythm of the chair, delivering a sense of flow and producing an asymmetrical balance.
